[TriEmbed] Fwd: Introductions and IEEE Extreme Planning

[R Radford]

NCSU is looking for proctors to sign up for 4 hour shifts to monitor the 24
hour Xtreme programming competition on October 18-19. Unfortunately it does
require you to be an IEEE member to sign up, so this does not apply to many
on these lists, but hoping someone sees this and is willing to help. They
currently have no one for the 4am - 8am shift (I just grabbed the midnight
- 4am shift), and only one person each of the other 4 shifts.

This is a great way to help out a good cause, and looks like it may be
fun... is anyone else interested in helping out?

Hi Rodney,

Thanks for the quick response, and we appreciate you signing up! There is
nothing in particular that you need to prepare for the event, as far as we
know.

We currently only have one proctor for each shift, except for 4am-8am.
Although we are only offering the gift certificates for the night shifts,
we would love any support you may be able to find for any of the other
shifts as well. Just want to reiterate, that we will have food available
for all shifts.

Thanks again for helping us out with this!
